Renters Reviews and Ratings
The Perfect Apartment - We LOVE The Banks!
August 22, 2024The Banks is simply an incredible apartment complex, we love living here! The property is basically brand new and equipped with a modern design with high ceilings and countless windows that are impossible to find for such a great price. The grounds are kept pristine, and the staff is always so helpful and kind, we love the monthly events! The Banks is truly paradise on earth, I would recommend this incredible property to anyone!Review from Apartments.com
Love it!
August 19, 2024The Banks is a very new and well kept apartment complex. It's wonderful river view with all the trees makes it feel like the outdoors aren't that far away. The property management is very nice and responsive!Review from Apartments.com
Loving our new home!
May 9, 2023Brand new apartments (2023)beautifully constructed: RARELY hear the neighbors above or below us, crisp clean lines throughout, with large windows in everyroom offering loads of natural light, plenty of space for the kids and animals. New apartment means new appliances! Which no one can say they don't appreciate! The neighbors we have met in out building have all been exceptionally nice and willing to look out for eachother. The grounds are well lit at night and security cameras around the ...property offer an extra sense of safety and security. Great location: river front property, many of the units have river view (not ours sadly, but not a deal breaker for us), situated between a park with a playground for kids to play, and a boat ramp, not far from Heritage Mall and major stores, I'm new to Albany but that seems significant to me. Friendly, helpful staffing from management to maintenance: one instance, the office was closed on site, but the corporate office (in Portland) was open and helped get us what we needed; and when maintenance came in to fix a 'new construction bug' (loose faucet handle) we asked if they could fix a couple other 'new construction bugs' and they were more than willing with a smile and friendly conversation. Only two drawbacks that come to mind: 1) no dog park on site, but i know there are others in the area, so its not a big deal (plus with being sandwiched between two parks, there is still plenty of dog walking paths), still very pet friendly apartments, plenty of dog friends; and, 2) they are still working out the final bits and pieces as far as construction/beautification, but that really just offers a rare opportunity to get to watch the place come to fruition and its full glory. We are SUPER excited to see what all they do end up addingRead MoreReview from Apartments.com

We LOVE our new apartment at The Banks!
April 29, 2023We absolutely LOVE our new apartment at The Banks! The construction is top quality; unit is almost soundproof. The wood floors and bedroom carpets are high quality and are perfect colors. The kitchen and bathrooms have tons of cabinets, the light stone countertops are a dream. The windows are extra tall, open layout is extremely well-designed and spacious, with a perfect foyer area. The heat pumps / air conditioners are ideal; work great, are economical and eco-friendly. The views, grounds ...and clubhouse are stunningly beautiful! Very peaceful and quiet area. And there are EV chargers in the parking lot! Management has been fantastic; professional, friendly and patient; accommodated our move-in dates when they kept changing. Also responded immediately to a maintenance request after we moved in. Very happy to be living at The Banks!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
